The seventh Yongsa Pati Ttaelyeochiubnida novel takes a solid step toward the endgame of forming a new hero party while also providing a hard time limit. It also introduces the first character who knew the protagonist before the transformation and now treats them differently as a result of it. While more or less on par with the earlier entries in general this one’s unfortunately on the worse side where technical errors are concerned.
The Majo to Youhei series starts off remarkably similar to Kuitsume Youhei no Gensou Kitan. The key difference being that this is far more grounded and less prone to absurdity in both character behavior and event development. Hopefully that trend lasts.
